Also add what you already tried so far.Tried most thing i did see on the web, Issue is that it startet random for like 1 month ago and i have no idea what makes this lagg starting.

I have a new ssd m2 disk and clean install of GTA V and ofc new clean install of FiveM but still spikes each 2min that last for half a second each time. when playing with other players and running from A to B i will always loose due to my lag and he dont :confused:

I have tried without firewall and other security stuff also with same result.
i also tried with my mobile phone just to make sure it was not my internett that cause the problem.

Any other game online or offline i dont have trouble with at all. just fivem online GTA5

so if anyone has a direction i should take please point it out for me

It is most likely the assets on the server. Most custom cars make texture loss and lag occur. So, it is nothing that you can do :frowning:

interesting, i will try on my own server since its a clean server but im sure i have the same trouble there.

If you do let me know. I’ll see what I can help you with!

Was nothing change for my clean server :confused: i have no idea what this problem is :frowning:

I did delete both game and FiveM and did a clean reinstall without any help. i still gett this annoying laggspikes each 1.5min that last for 1 to 2 sec each. dont matter witch server i play on with or without addons etc. and it seems to be only when using fivem. is there some ports i do need to open mabe? cant think of any thing else since i dont lagg using gta5 online or any other online games.

Oh… OK. So you will drop FPS to about 30 randomly for a few seconds? If so, that is very normal for FiveM it happens to me all the time, it is annoying but there is really nothing you can do! I think the lag spikes are communicating with the servers database and saving your player information. So, it lags! I don’t have any other idea as to why it does it, but it does sadly :frowning:

no it isn’t

My fps is fine, the only problem is that my game freeze for a sec and this happends all the time. this problem did start for like 1 month ago so its new, the game did run smooth before that.

Clearly it is. Because my game does the same exact thing with Windows freshly installed. So, either my theory is right or you are in denial!

Denial? i wish that was the problem, at least i would have known what the problem was. But it is not, i dont have frame drops and my connection is more than ok. but for sure what do i know, have not played more that 20 years on PC…

Have you even tried playing on a clean server that doesn’t have 30000 ‘RP-enhancing’ resources installed?

Provide an .etl file for such an occurrence made using, say, UIforETW.

Did you even read this thread? He clearly stated above he tried a fresh server with no scripts installed, it still lags. This is a FiveM issue.

No. No. No. That wasn’t directed at you. I was quoting you, but I was replying to flerovium.

I wasn’t replying to his claim, I was replying to yours. Both of you seem to be having an entirely different issue, oh by the way, most people have perfect game performance unless playing on shit-tier servers, so if it were a FiveM issue by itself wouldn’t this happen for all 2.9 million people who ever ran FiveM?

And again, the ‘provide an .etl file’ still stands for any performance issue. Either put your words to actions and provide a trace for your performance issues, or stop spreading unfounded nonsense without data to back it up.

It’s not that hard to back it up. People complain all the time about performance issues on here and they are told the same thing. “Provide these files spiel” Then never get replied to. I have played on many servers with lots of resources and little to no resources. I still get lag and performance issues. You guys think that it is our hardware. Clearly there is an issue with FiveM and performance. If I can play LSPDFR with 60 plugins and no lag or texture loss then clearly there is something wrong here. Stop being in denial (All of you!) and fix these issues instead of flipping it back onto us and claiming it is our hardware!

Again, nobody (including you) has provided any such traces when asked for.

Nobody from project staff has claimed it is your hardware. Also, without a trace file it is impossible to fix, as it does not occur for any of us and without data or repro it can not be tracked down to anything at all.

It’s like you come to a doctor, go whine ‘help, I’m hurting, PLEASE FIX IT’, but you don’t want to say where you’re hurting, or want to have any scans or x-rays done at all, but you just go ‘CURE ME, I DON’T WANT TO HURT, I DON’T WANT TO GO IN THE X-RAY ROOM, JUST CURE ME, CLEARLY THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH BODIES AND PAIN’.

Nobody can tell without scans or information if you have a broken arm or if your liver is failing or whatever-the-fuck, so yeah.

I get this lag issue every like 45 sec - 1.5 min when “screenshot-basic” is running. If i shut it off and rejoin i get zero issues. Maybe see if that’s running on any of the stuff u have going IE gc phone or what ever

See - that’s a useful bit of information.

Is any resource running that’s periodically requesting a screenshot (as opposed to when pressing a button)? Any increase of memory usage over time that vanishes when not using those resources? Any server one of us can join where one can notice this occurring?
